通过文献计量、主题建模和定性分析，梳理了管理与商业领域数字创新的研究现状，识别出基础主题和当前主题，并构建了一个连接个体、组织和行业层面的多层次框架，为学者提供未来研究方向。
The paper investigates the landscape of digital innovation publications in management and business journals. By integrating bibliometric, topic modeling, and qualitative analyses, we introduce a novel approach to synthesize the foundational, current, and future topics. Analyzing 684 documents, we first identify three foundational topics: digital transformation, digital platform ecosystems, and digital innovation foundations . Second, we reveal ten current topics: digital business model innovation, digital process innovation, digital strategy, digital product innovation, digital capabilities, open innovation, digital platform ecosystems, digital transformation, digital service innovation, and digital innovation adoption . Third, we analyze the theoretical perspectives and foundations that underpin these topics through qualitative interpretation. The paper contributes to digital innovation literature by providing an overarching multi-level framework that links contextual conditions, mechanisms, and outcomes across individual, organizational, and industry levels. Furthermore, it identifies key underlying theories that shape the field and proposes a future research agenda for multidisciplinary theoretical bridging.
